Communal Stairwell
Invest in the best entrance for your tenement building.
The communal stairwell of a tenement building is used every day by home owners and visitors. Redecorating the space can make it feel warm and inviting again. Here are some of our favourite tips for redecorating stairwells. Our team of talented decorators are experienced with renovating stairwells using high quality materials.
Paint it dark: If you want to make a bold statement with your staircase, try an inky grey or black. This will create a dramatic contrast with the rest of your home and draw attention to your stairs. Or, add some light paint on the walls and warm details with picture frames and lighting fixtures.
Turn it into a pantry: If you have a little nook under your stairs that’s not being used, why not transform it into a cosy and convenient pantry? You can install some shelves and store your dry goods, spices, cookbooks, and more. You can also add a hidden door for extra charm.
Decorate with vases: A simple way to add some style and interest to your stairway is to place a large vase or accent piece in the corner of an L-shaped staircase. You can fill it with fresh flowers, dried branches, or anything else that suits your taste.
Recycle old shutters: For a rustic touch, you can use recycled shutters as wall decorations over your staircase. You can paint them in different colours or leave them distressed for an antique look.
Mix and match prints: Don’t be afraid to experiment with different textures and patterns on your stairway walls. Our team have advice on different types of wallpaper, fabric, or stencils to fit with your overall style. You can also mix and match different prints for a fun and eclectic feel.
Honour your furry friend: If you love your dog (or cat), why not dedicate an area of your stairway to them? You can hang portraits, silhouettes, or photos of your pet on the wall for a cute and personal touch.
These are just some of the many ways you can redecorate your stairwell without spending too much time or money. Have fun with it and our team are here to offer advice and support and deliver transformations at a high quality. Feel free to get in touch today for an estimate.
